Chocolate Vinegar Cake
I made chocolate vinegar cake, which may sound weird but is actually super interesting! It’s a Great Depression era recipe that uses pantry items to make a fluffy and airy chocolate cake. I don’t consider it one of the best cakes I’ve made, but it definitely is one of the easiest and simplest!
Shortbread Cookies
This is the third part to my no eggs recipes series!
This shortbread recipe is so easy since it only requires three ingredients: butter, flour, and sugar! Who knew that you can make such delicious cookies with barely anything. These cookies are crisp and buttery.
Earl Grey Panna Cotta and Blueberry Jello
This is my second part of making egg-less desserts since eggs have been either scarce or pricey lately.
I always wanted to try making panna cotta but never got around to it. So, I thought this would be the perfect time to try since it does not contain any eggs and I did! It was much easier than I thought it would be and I changed it up by adding earl grey and blueberries. You should definitely give this simple yet delicious dessert a try!
No Bake Cheesecake
I always crave cheesecake. But since there’s been a lack of eggs in America lately, I’ve been looking for recipes that don’t call for eggs. So here comes this no bake cheesecake! The recipe calls for creating texture with fully whipped cream and imparting flavor with a combination of cream cheese and mascarpone cheese with touches of vanilla and lemon. I don’t know which I prefer more now, the baked or no baked. It’s so good!
Chocolate Cake
I made this chocolate cake for my friend’s birthday but this cake also works perfectly for Valentine’s Day! If you’re searching for a cake that’s all about chocolate, this is it. It’s sweet, decadent, and delicious! And it’s also quite easy to make. You should definitely try it out! :D
Yaksik (약식)
Yaksik (약식), which is also known as yakbap (약밥) is a Korean dish that is typically enjoyed during Korean holidays such as Seollal (Korean New Year’s Day) and Chuseok (Korean Harvest Festival). Yet, what I remember most from yaksik is that it is one of the foods that my grandma would regularly make. Her yaksik was so delicious and I miss it to this day. This is my attempt at making a version close to hers.
Scones with Clotted Cream and Jam
I went to a cafe in London and fell in love with scones with clotted cream and jam. I’ve never had clotted cream before that, but I instantly was amazed by how good it was and how beautifully it paired with the scones and jam! I knew that I had to have it at home, so here’s my attempt at making this British classic!
Strawberry Matcha Crinkle Cookies
I recently saw Inga Lam’s holiday cookie video and saw that she made matcha crinkle cookies coated in strawberry powdered sugar. I’m a sucker for anything strawberry matcha flavored and so I had to try making these cookies myself! They also make great gifts to hand out during Christmas or at anytime! :D
Chocolate Rugelach
I always make a christmas cookie box for friends and family around this time of the year so I was thinking about which cookies I should make this time. I made raspberry rugelach before but never tried making chocolate ones. So, I decided to try making chocolate rugelach this time! I’ve been craving chocolate lately, so this might have influenced my decision… haha
Apple Butter Cinnamon Rolls
I love cinnamon rolls so much. So when I was thinking about what I want to bake with apples, one of my first thoughts went to cinnamon rolls. I then started to think about what I can fill them with, and I came up with apple butter! So here’s some apple butter cinnamon rolls. :)
